WCMD OCL Fueled by Caffeine Blog Candy!


Two blog candy offerings in one day! That's what I call a WCMD celebration!
If you'd like to enter the blog candy contest for this set, Fueled by Caffeine by Our Craft Lounge, just leave a comment below and tell me if you are a coffee drinker or not, do you drink full strength, decaf, hot, cold, mocha, frap, drip, instant, french press, etc. In other words, what's your favorite way to drink coffee? Or are you like Jay who doesn't touch the stuff, but have friends who do that you will create cards and gifts for using this set?

For me, it's pretty simple, I drink half caf, ground here at home with my red Cuisinart coffee grinder, a generous splash of french vanilla creamer and I'm ready to peruse the morning paper, starting with the comics and working my way to the real news on the front page. I do splurge on a half caf soy vanilla latte on occasion!

I will draw a random winner for this set, Crafty Clear Fueled by Caffeine by Our Craft Lounge, on Sunday night 7pm Pacific Standard Time.

JenMarie said...

Oh what a FABULOUS set!!!
I'm kinda a coffee drinker... I don't care for just coffee...BUT I love my Decaf Soy Iced Mocha! LOL

I love this stamp set even though I am not a coffee drinker! I am a big tea drinker though. We were given tea in our bottles as babies and I've never stopped drinking it, though I do use a mug now! Thanks for the chance to win. My E-mail is lisawhs808 at aol dot com.

I'm not a coffee drinker, but many of my friends and family are.

Otter said...

I missed this set in their last release!! Too cute! Four years of college and night shift has not forced me to drink coffee yet...ok, that's a lie...we have a Tim Hortons at the hospital and I do like the Mochas, but that's mostly hot choc so that doesn't count.

Cindee Stacey said...

I'm not a coffee drinker...I get "juice" from soda! I DO have many family & friends that are coffee drinkers that this set would be perfect for! TFS!

Michelle/Eliotstamps said...

Ooh, what a great stamp set! At home, I add a little sugar and half and half to my fully caffeinated coffee. At Starbucks, 90 percent of the time I order a grande vanilla latte, usually iced unless it's cold outside. :)

Pamela S. said...

Being pregnant (22 years ago!) put an end to my coffee drinking. I developed a strong aversion to the stuff... even the smell of coffee made me nauseous! I never developed a taste for it again.

Seems like most of the world loves coffee though, and I'd love to win this set so I could use it for making cards and gifts.

Thanks Val!

I don't touch the stuff, but I do like pumpkin spice cappucinos, lol!

Elaine said...

Great card with super colors!

I'm definitely in the caffeine club...I'll drink it almost any way it's available but my favorites are the pumpkin spice latte at Starbucks and the Niko Niko which is espresso with an orange twist at the local coffee place called Vivace!

Susanne Sorensen said...

great card and the autumn colors make me think of coffee and cocoa. i'm definitely a coffee person. give me a latte any day. especially enjoy the peppermint mochas at christmas time at starbucks. not only am i a coffee drinker, i love/craze/obsess over coffee stamps. the set included in your blog candy is awesome.

thanks for sharing your creativity and this chance to win some great stuff.

Busym1 said...

I am a coffee drinker. Cream and sugar in my morning coffee. I have a Senseo maker for special occasions or an afternoon cup, and of course gotta have my Starbuck frappuccino at least 2 times a week! your blog is fun to visit! michelle

Lueyes said...

I am more of a tea drinker, but all my friends and sons are regular coffee drinkers. When I do drink coffee, I usually have a latte or cappucino.

Beverly Bishop said...

YES, YES, YES! I most certainly am a coffee drinker. Nothing in it to detract from the flavor. I prefer full-bodied drip. Most of my friends also enjoy coffee. I'd like to have a grinder for fresher brews.

Thanks for your generosity.

I am a coffee drinker! We have the pot on all day nearly every day. I like it black - no cream, no sugar, yuk! I like any coffee, but we use the Starbuck's coffee here! I am totally diggin' this stamp set! I put my cards in our local Kaffee Shop, and use this theme on many of them! Thanks for the chance to win, and Val, your card is adorable! mamagilliam@gmail.com

Jodi said...

Big coffee drinker! At home I drink almost a pot of coffee in the morning made up of 1 scoop of 1/2 caf and 1 scoop of decaf with ff vanilla creamer. (trying to cut down on the caffiene) but if I get coffee at my local coffee shop I like a caramel mocha. Mmmmm...

Crafty Engineering said...

Another cute set! I am a total coffee drinker. At home I do the half-caf with Fat Free French Vanilla Creamer (probably a little more than the splash you mentioned!). But on occasion I splurge for the Caramel Macchiato at Starbucks!

Etha said...

Oh I love coffee :) I've been under a steady infusion of the good stuff for some 30 years, there were some ugly side effects, hehe.. I finally found one that is good for me and have been enjoying organogold ever since!!
Must have real milk and stevia in it, then I'm happy!
I'd LOVE to win that set, thanks for the chance!

Cammy said...

I am not a coffee drinker myself, but will drink cappucino. My husband though, would have an IV of coffee if he could!

texasjodylynn said...

Super cute! :)

I don't drink coffee, but I stamp coffee! :)

Anna van Schurman said...

Rarely drink coffee, though my husband mainlines it. When I do it's always latte--need to drink my milk!

Anonymous said...

Oh I am split personality!
I drink tea first thing in the morning, but coffee after that!
What a cute set and a great card, and thanks for the chance a candy.

I never drank coffee. Couldn't stand my parents coffee breath growing up. So I never tasted it. But I have many friends who drink coffee.I rather drink hot chocolate. pgkennedy@cox.net

Lori H said...

As much as I love coffee, I don't have a single coffee set. I am (almost!) afraid to admit that I like coffe in so many different forms. I drink a couple K-cups in the morning, with a bit of milk & sweetener. After lunch, I move on to mochas or lattes (hot or iced depending on the outside temp). Post dinner usually involves a cup of decaf now that it is cooling off. I have also discovered the goodness of Chai lattes (hot or cold), and have put them into rotation. I feel so much better getting that confession off my chest. I think I'll go make a cup of coffee!

iriseyes said...

Yes, yes, I'm a coffee drinker! Black w/a touch of cream. We drink lots of it at home, the coffee grinder is a constant background noise! A Caramel Macchiato from Starbucks when on the run does the trick for me also. Thanks for the chance to win this awesome set - it would be put to good use!

maryrose said...

Val! I love this set! And yes, I'm a coffee drinker...that's my mug behind the mug! ha ha! At home, I drink Senseo pod coffees with Starbucks syrups. At Starbucks, my fave is a nonfat Cinnamon Dolce Latte with whipped topping...mmm, comfort in a cup! I must add this set to my collection of coffee stamps for my blog cafe! Thanks for the heads up!

Jenn said...

Love love love the coffee mug image. I am so a coffee drinker. At home, it's whatever K-Cup I can grab out of the closet, Silk French Vanilla creamer and a packet of Splenda. At Starbucks, it's either a Skinny Hazelnut latte or a Non-fat Chai latte.

I must have coffee in the morning. Kona Blend with a generous helping of milk. My father calls it coffee flavored milk. I could make all sorts of cards for him with this set.

LOVE this set!!! I AM a coffee drinker & I'm a "purist" -- I want it preferably fresh-ground, black and fairly strong & "keep it coming" until the pot's empty!!! LOL!

I like the coffee sets to make things for friends and I always love the sayings of the sets. I do not like coffee or tea, but love the set!

Gwen said...

I love coffee, regular, decaf, loaded with the good stuff. It pretty much doesn't matter! I try not to be addicted to caffeine....but usually have some in my system! :)

zekesmom10 said...

I prefer milk, water or tea. I know oodles of people who seem to *need* the java though!

Debra james said...

Believe it or not I dont drink Coffee or Tea. Never have and never will- I dont even like the smell LOL. I drink Milo, all water, no sugar and a little milk.

Jenny said...

Hi Val! I'm a a coffee drinker.My favorite Starbuck drink is the pumpkin spice latte. I don't have it everyday another than that I drink regular coffee. Most of the time I like it hot and of course with milk and a little sugar, need to have a little sweet don't like it bitter.

Kathy Kelsheimer said...

Hi, Coffee isn't even a choice anymore-it's a requirement! I'm drinking some now. For me, it's just plain ol' Folgers with cream and sugar. I love sipping coffee on the front porch with my husband (who smokes a cigar and I have a fan pointed at him to keep the nasty smell away from me). We watch the neighborhood and call ourselves 'the Burbs'. But it all centers around the brew! shecop@charter.net

sue wisniewski said...

I'm a tea drinker myself but my DH drinks coffee. I would love to add this set of images to my collection. stamping sue

Kathy Camasso said...

What an adorable stamp set and I love the card you made with it! I am a coffee drinker from WAY back! At home it's nice and strong with cream; here's my order at Dunkin Donuts though: Medium French Vanilla, cream only! When I splurge at Dunky's it's a Caramel Latte,mmmmmmmmmm!
Thanks for the chance to win Valerie!

Coffee? Yes ma'am! I love cappucino when I'm out and about, but at home I love my home roasted coffee best. I also make Turkish coffee on lovely lazy weekend afternoons, which hubby and I imbibe on the deck...YUM!

Deb Buckminster said...

I drink "baby" coffee and it's QUITE a process to make!

I heat water in the micro-wave and while it's heating, I spoon about 1/4 tsp. of instant coffee into a tall lidded thermo tumbler, along with 2 heaping teaspoons of hot chocolate mix and a splash of flavored liquid creamer.

When the water is piping hot, I add it to my "mix," give it a stir with a long-handled mini-spatula, and I have a LARGE & LOVELY hot beverage to sip while browsing my favorite blogs!!

I love this stamp set and the card you made is fantastic. My dad died this spring and drinking coffee with Mom in the morning and chatting with her when I am visiting with her has become a favorite time for us. I drink my coffee full strength with french vanilla creamer and some Splenda. My Mom probably has coffee running through her veins but my learning to drink coffee with her has taken some time.

Anonymous said...

I love my coffee full strength with a little fat free creamer...however recently the doctor has told me that I must go to decaf or half caf because of heart palps. Bummer!

It's horrible to say, but I'm allergic to coffee. I love it though, so if I limit it to a cup every now and then I'm ok. I like it with sugar and real cream...a spoonful of vanilla ice cream is awesome or topped with a little whipped cream. My all time favorite is Starbucks Caramel, White Chocolate Frappacino. I wish I could drink those every day. This is an awesome stamp set.

Kim L. said...

Yum.....coffee..... I like a regular cup of coffee (Peet's coffee beans all the way!) brewed at home, with Coffeemate Vanilla creamer. Occasionally I'll go for a Starbuck's coffee Frap on a hot day!

Michele said...

Such a cute set! I am definitely a coffee drinker! Can't start my day without at least one cup of full strength coffee (with a little French Vanilla creamer) made with my Keurig!! The Caramel Machiato/Frap and the now available Pumpkin Spice Latte/Frap at Starbucks are my favorites!!

Book Bling said...

I drink half caff coffee also. I try to limit myself to one cup a day but right now I need a whole pot of high test. French Vanilla splenda makes it just right!

connie boyd said...

no coffee for me! unless it has lots of sugar and creamer, but it is just a few sips!!

Susan G said...

I never liked coffee until I turned 60 years of age. What's up with that? Now I have to have my 2cups a day--half caf flavored with something or I use a flavored kind mixed with decaf. Can't handle that much caffeine. Both my DILs get coffee gift cards for their birthdays so this set would get a lot of use.

carpediem said...

No question about it...i'm a coffee drinker! laura j

joanne gilch said...

I am so lucky. My DH makes his coffee in the am and I get the leftovers, which makes me very happy and "loaded" for the day. It's about 7 ounces and just the right amount--black, please! However, if I make my own, it's with half decaf hazelnut and half reg. Hubby does not like flavored so the entire pot is mine, after he has his pot of hi-test reg. All my friends drink coffee and this stamp set would be perfect for cards for them and , of course, my wonderful husband. jdgilch@msn.com

Love your blog!!
